Archaeological Links

The Centre for Applied Archaeology at Salford University is the only university-based archaeology organisation to be located within a School of the Built Environment with unrivalled access to a wide range of skills from planning and surveying, to conservation and 3D visualisation. Their activities have an emphasis on industrial archaeology. The Centre also hosts the Greater Manchester Archaeological Advisory Service.

GLAS is an independent voluntary association whose aim is to involve local residents of Glossop and Longdendale in the exploration, sharing and dissemination of knowledge of the archaeology and history of Glossop, Derbyshire and the surrounding district.

The organisation aims to help share information about local archaeology groups in Greater Manchester. You can find out what local groups are up to and how you can volunteer to join them or go on a dig.
